AN INGENIOUS PERFORmANCE.

AN HNe1 kGNROUS ANCEs
 The New Hampshire House has taken rather ingenious way of dealing with the
 veto of the Hazen bill by Governor Saw yer. This bill, as will be remembered by
 our readers, was vetoed by the Governor be.
 cause he thought there had been too much
 Lobbying" done in it's behalf. Some reso-
 lutions have been passed by the House. In
 these resolutions it is pointed out that the
 Governor did not examine or consider the in
 trinsic merits of the bill and did not form or
 express any opinion upon question of such
 vital importance to the State as that in-
 voIved in the merits of the bill, and did not
 in his communication state any objection or
 objections to the bill. It is declared to be
 the sense of tho House that the true intent
 of the constitution, in requiring the govern
 or, in case he does not approve bill which shall have passed both houses, to return his objections to it, with the bill, to the house in which it originated, is to give the two houses the benefit of those objections and the reasons and arguments adduced by him in their support, to aid them in their further deliberations upon the bill when they come to consider it in compliance with the req uire- ments of the constitution, and it is the con stitutional right of the two houses to have the objections of the governor to the merits of bill returned without his signature to aid them in it's reconsideration. Therefore no reconsideration such as is required of them can be had by the two houses without a statement of those objections. It is fur ther declared that the governor has no con stitutional right to inquire into the conduct of the two houses of the legislature; and that the omission of the governor to examine and consider the bill and thereupon determine whether he approved or disapproved 1t, and his omission to return with the bill Q state ment of his objections thereto, were onis- sions of acts made indispensably necessary by the constitution to the withholding of his signature therefrom, and inasmuch as more than five days Sundays excepted) have elapsed since said bill was presented to the governor, and the same had not been re- turned by him to the house in which it orig mated, with his objections, according to the true meaning and intent of the constitution, and the legislature has not in the meantime the bill has become and is a law without the signature of the governor.
 This is an interesting performance. Wheth- CT or not it will amount to anything remains to be seen. Probably it will not

of England, and recent native writer calls l attention to the condition of the country. He | points-out that such foreign capital as circu- lates in British India carries away it's own
 profits out of British India, and the latter is pre-
 vented from acquiring any capital of it's own. What are the effects of this policy upon the condition of the people9 The masses are left
 as poor as ever; 0,000, 900 of the people go through life on insufficient food. So says the official report. But Naoroji's opinion is that twice the number are in that condition
 Even Ireland's condition seems to him four

 the British empire is fourishing except
 wretched India" In western Europe, he re- minds us, poverty is not from want of wealth or income, but from unequal distribution.
 But in British India there is no wealth to be distributed. Unhappiness and discontent, suffering and degradation are the conse- quences.
 Civil service reform is taking back seat nowadays. Only short time ago Civil Ser vice Reform Commissioner Oberly issued letter to federal oficeholders calling their at tention once more to the impropriety of such officers participating in political work. But that letter is not endorsed by Commissioner Edgerton, and this unfortunate difference of opinion among the commissioners is appar- ently taken by the Washington clerks as an excuse for disregarding the civil service requirements. Hundreds of them are all ready absent from their posts engaged in the manipulation of party politics at their re- flo numbers than at any time for three years past, the clerks are preparing to go home to vote, under the pressure of local bosses, who threaten them with loss of position if they do not lend at least the aid of their ballots. Advertisements are appearing in the Wash ington papers openly offering the Democratic ofieeholders cheap transportation to their respective voting places, and these advertise msnts are signed by the chairmen of State committees.

Want of Sleep

Is sending thousands annually to the insane asylum and the doctors say this trouble is alarmingly on the increase. The usual remedies, while they may give temporary relief, are likely to do more harm than good. What is needed is an Alterative and Blood-purifier. Ayers SarsaparilIa is incomparabIy the best. It corrects those disturbances ill the circulation which cause sleepless- ness, gives increased vitality, and re- stores the nervous system to hcalthful condition.

SWEEPING CATARRH.

The distressing, sneeze sneeze, sneeze, the acrid watery discharges from the eyes and nose. the painful inflammation extending to the throat, the swelling of the mucous lining, eau sing choking sations, cough, ringing noises in the head and splitting headaches-how familiar these symptoms are to thousands who suffer periodically from head colds or influenza and who live in ignorance of the fact that single application of sanford's Radical Cure for Catarrh will afford instantaneous relief.
 But this treatment in cases of simple Catarrh gives but faint idea of what this remedy will do in the chronic forms, where the breathing is ob- structed by choking putrid mucous accumulations, the hearing affected, smell and taste gone, throat ulcerated and hacking cough gradually fastening itself upon the debtated system. Then it is that Cure mauifests itself in Instantaneous and grateful rel ef Cure begins from the first application It is rapid, radical, permanent, economical, safe.

In six months they are found to be covered with well-grown bivalves, which are then marketable.

establish a postal telegraph system

Senator Edmunds says the bill provides
in brief that the government shall con-
struct its own telegraph lines between
the larger cities first, and thence ex-
tend them further as the necessities OF
the people and business seem to require.
The senator does not advocate the pur-
chase of existing lines nor of leasing
the lines of other companies. Neither
does he believe the government should
own telegraph, as it does the post
